New discussion here:

I've been working on adding the ability for the Elk node server to handle controlling ISY Lights when Elk Lights are changed. But first a question for all existing users of the ELK nodeserver. Currently when you have a "Light" configured in the Elk, it will create a new node matching that name on the ISY. This was done because I didn't really understand what Elk Lights were used for. So when moving to allow the new way, I plan to have the node server delete these ISY Light nodes that it created. Is everyone okay with that? The way it will work with initial release is you create an Elk Light and make it's Name be the same as the name or address of the ISY node you would like to control. There will be no export/import functionality on initial release due to the effort required, and in my opinion, it's pretty easy to just manually configure the Lights in ElkRP2 so it's not worth the effort. But, I've built in the basics for doing this, so it could be added in the future if the new method is not satisfactory. These changes have been made, and hopefully I can complete testing and get it released soon. - Jim

Moving devices should not matter. Any errors in the node server log? Download log package and PM it to me. Sent from my Pixel 6 Pro using Tapatalk

Ok, that is why discovery won't work with eisy when on WiFi. No idea how this can be resolved. Sent from my Pixel 6 Pro using Tapatalk

Thanks, had to restart then push the black button. All good now. But, this NS doesn't report any connection state or heartbeat that I could see? Sent from my Pixel 6 Pro using Tapatalk

It's add that PG3 -> PG3x migration didn't just keep your existing hubs. I just did that migrating last weekend and it worked fine. Is your eisy connected to Ethernet or WiFi?

I migrated to eisy and noticed Caseta NS wasn't running, in PG3 UI it says "press the black button", I changed log mode to debug that message went away and now it just keeps printing: 2023-03-14 08:35:22,212 MainThread udi_interface DEBUG controller:start: Waiting for configuration False 2023-03-14 08:35:27,219 MainThread udi_interface DEBUG controller:start: Waiting for configuration False 2023-03-14 08:35:32,221 MainThread udi_interface DEBUG controller:start: Waiting for configuration False 2023-03-14 08:35:37,321 MainThread udi_interface DEBUG controller:start: Waiting for configuration False 2023-03-14 08:35:42,322 MainThread udi_interface DEBUG controller:start: Waiting for configuration False 2023-03-14 08:35:47,347 MainThread udi_interface DEBUG controller:start: Waiting for configuration False 2023-03-14 08:35:52,359 MainThread udi_interface DEBUG controller:start: Waiting for configuration False 2023-03-14 08:35:57,360 MainThread udi_interface DEBUG controller:start: Waiting for configuration False 2023-03-14 08:36:02,364 MainThread udi_interface DEBUG controller:start: Waiting for configuration False 2023-03-14 08:36:04,301 MQTT udi_interface.interface DEBUG interface:_message: QUEUING incoming message shortPoll 2023-03-14 08:36:04,302 Command udi_interface.interface DEBUG interface:_parseInput: DEQUEING shortPoll 2023-03-14 08:36:07,369 MainThread udi_interface DEBUG controller:start: Waiting for configuration False Restarting and it shows press the black button again. Is that necessary after migration? Also, is there any way to monitor this NS on the IoP to send notifications if it's not running?

Sorry no progress. Work & life have been crazy the last few months. Finally had a little spare time so migration from polisy to eisy complete and first on the NS fix list is ELK. Sent from my Pixel 6 Pro using Tapatalk

It didn't matter how many times backup was run, they were all corrupt. But I was able to open the file and view the contents which showed a PG3 error due to an invalid soft link I had created a while back while debugging an issue.

Well crap... pg3 backup zip file is corrupt...

I saved the backup on my Polisy, and trying to migrate from PG3 backup on my eisy. 3/11/2023, 15:05:00 [pg3] info: Processing: {"method":"POST","url":"/frontend/restoreFromPG3","header":{"host":"192.168.86.89:3000","connection":"keep-alive","content-length":"1321","accept":"application/json, text/plain, */*","authorization":"Bearer eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJkYXRhIjp7Im5hbWUiOiJhZG1pbiIsInBhc3N3b3JkIjoiYWRtaW4iLCJpZCI6IjEwMCIsInJvbGUiOiJhZG1pbiIsImdyb3VwcyI6IltcIkFkbWluaXN0cmF0b3JzXCJdIiwiZW5hYmxlZCI6MX0sImlhdCI6MTY3ODU3NTg0NywiZXhwIjoxNjc5MTgwNjQ3fQ.iyy8rxV3f3FVXLYV8CL_TGGuH0d6iVz_6csNEhycfBI","user-agent":"Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/110.0.0.0 Safari/537.36","content-type":"multipart/form-data; boundary=----WebKitFormBoundaryyNcgYSqNrR132KLi","origin":"http://192.168.86.89:3000","referer":"http://192.168.86.89:3000/backup","accept-encoding":"gzip, deflate","accept-language":"en-US,en;q=0.9"}} 3/11/2023, 15:05:00 [pg3] error: RestoreFromPG3: Error: FILE_ENDED at PullStream.pull (/var/polyglot/node_modules/unzipper/lib/PullStream.js:83:28) at PullStream.emit (node:events:513:28) at PullStream.<anonymous> (/var/polyglot/node_modules/unzipper/lib/PullStream.js:20:10) at PullStream.emit (node:events:525:35) at finish (node:internal/streams/writable:748:10) at node:internal/streams/writable:726:13 at process.processTicksAndRejections (node:internal/process/task_queues:82:21) All packages were updated this morning, and migrated from Polisy.

I did the 4 presses of the power button to reset networking and now can log in and see things are progressing.

Yes, thanks for the reminder. I looked at: /var/udx/logs/log and can see it's switching between wifi/ethernet constantly. Not sure why yet.

Figured out my issue, but not sure why. eisy keeps switching between ethernet/wifi. Same ethernet cable was used that was previously plugged into Polisy... Edit: didn't mean to do multiple posts, moved my comments over here:

Same problem here migrating from Polisy to eisy. ISY on eisy won't show up in finder, but sometimes if I manually add it I can see it, but then get the same error as you when I try to connect. I don't want to reboot since I have no idea how to tell if the zwave migration has completed yet.

Finally have time today to migrate from Polisy/zwave to eisy/zmatter. Followed all steps, both devices upgraded to 5.5.9, wrote the migration backup from Polisy, shut it down, plugged USB PLM into eisy booted it back up, started restore using migration backup which has been running for over an hour while I was busy with something else, and IoX finder still won't find it, and manually entering says Not Found. Running tail -f /var/isy/FILES/LOG/ZWAY.LOG shows things still happening. but isy is not responding. Any ideas before I submit a ticket?

Get a router that doesn't require rebooting [emoji16] If it has this issue today then download log package and PM it to me. I'm traveling today but will try to take a look this week. Sent from my Pixel 6 Pro using Tapatalk

Check the Node Server log for error Sent from my Pixel 6 Pro using Tapatalk

Seems 5.5.5 has lots of issues, I was going to transition from polisy to eisy this weekend but now holding off for next release. Sent from my Pixel 6 Pro using Tapatalk

Issue created, will try to take a look https://github.com/UniversalDevicesInc-PG3/udi-poly-ELK/issues/95 Sent from my Pixel 6 Pro using Tapatalk

Based on or PM discussion I created a 2 bug reports https://github.com/UniversalDevicesInc-PG3/udi-poly-kasa/issues/14 https://github.com/UniversalDevicesInc-PG3/udi-poly-kasa/issues/15 I will get to it when I have time and higher priority issues with other node servers are resolved.

Great, thanks. If wireless tags are important you should monitor the connection state and the heartbeat. Sent from my Pixel 6 Pro using Tapatalk

Thanks, this is something that @bpwwer will need to review. Sent from my Pixel 6 Pro using Tapatalk

There is no way to automate restarting a Node Server. Did the controller "Node Server Online" still show Connected?

Set log to debug, press restart, and if problem persists download log package and PM to me. Sent from my Pixel 6 Pro using Tapatalk
